Situation
Hundred Years' War
The death of the last direct heir to the French throne has left a power vacuum, plunging France into turmoil. With competing claims and long-standing tensions over territory and feudal rights, the fragile peace between France and England has shattered. Both realms hold lands across France, creating friction that threatens the unity of Christianity. What began as a dispute over succession has escalated into a protracted struggle for dominance — one that now threatens to scar the continent for generations.
The Hundred Years' War plunges Western Europe in turmoil! This period will test alliances and new powers will certainly emerge from the rubbles.
Recommended Actions:
Both France and England have access to Request War Entry, Sign a Truce and Request Roman Delegates. These are unique ways to manipulate the status quo of the conflict or even tilt it in either country's favor.
Extra Hints:
As a participant in the conflict, we may be able to gain land or powerful alliances.
Recommended Actions as Subject of France:
It would be wise to secure Demand Autonomy from the France. Each Appanage may demand a certain degree of autonomy and greatly benefit, by leveraging its importance as a defender of the French crown.
Vassal Defection
Disloyal subjects of either France or England may abandon their overlord and join the opposing crown, reshaping the war. Defections become much more likely during an active war between the two crowns; in peacetime, only deeply disloyal subjects will switch sides. A subject that shares its overlord's dynasty cannot defect at all, no matter how disloyal it becomes.
As the overlord, watch Subject Loyalty of subjects without our dynasty closely. Use Grant Subject Titles to shore up wavering vassals, or strengthen loyalty through opinion gifts before war breaks out. As the rival, target subjects ruled by a different dynasty and erode their loyalty over time.
